Loui Eriksson News

Eriksson (bone bruise) is “possible” to play in Tuesday’s preseason game.

Eriksson suffered a bone bruise while blocking a shot in last Tuesday’s preseason opener against the Oilers. The Canucks originally labeled Eriksson as “week-to-week,” but the Swedish winger was back on the ice for Monday’s morning skate. The veteran should be ready for the start of the 2019 regular season.

The Canucks signed Loui Eriksson to a six-year contract worth $36 million ($6.0M AAV).

Eriksson, 30, was a key part of the Tyler Seguin trade back in 2013 but the Bruins lost him for nothing. He is coming off of his best season with Boston, having collected 30 goals and 33 assists (63 points) in 82 games. Eriksson is a player who rarely misses games and is a threat to score 30 goals with 30 helpers every season. He should click well with fellow Swedes Henrik and Daniel Sedin.

Eriksson (hand) will play on Saturday vs. Philadelphia.

Eriksson missed Thursday’s game with a hand injury that he suffered on Wednesday vs. the Penguins. He is back in the lineup on the Bruins third line with Chris Kelly and Carl Soderberg. He has six goals and six assists (12 points) in his last 15 games.

Eriksson (hand) is questionable Saturday’s game.

Eriksson was on the ice this morning, but he still remains questionable for tomorrow’s game vs. the Flyers. It is an afternoon start, so the Bruins will not have a morning skate, monitor his status prior to game-time (1PM ET).

Eriksson (undisclosed) will not play on Thursday.

Coach Claude Julien does not think that Eriksson’s injury is something that is going to keep him out long-term. He will be replaced by David Pastrnak tonight. Monitor his status leading up to Saturday’s game.

Eriksson (heel) back on the ice this morning as expected.

Eriksson will be replaced by Jordan Caron on the third line and Brad Marchand will take his spot on the power-play. Bruins head coach Claude Julien said that Eriksson will be back in the lineup on Thursday.

Eriksson missed the last 15 games with a concussion that he suffered on December 7. He is expected to start the game on the Bruins third line with Carl Soderberg and Ryan Spooner. He has totalled 14 points (5G / 9A) with a plus-8 in 24 games this season. He is owned in 66% of Yahoo leagues. Eriksson would be a consistent producer that would provide depth at both LW and RW.

Eriksson (concussion) appears set to return on Saturday against San Jose.

Following this afternoon's game the Bruins travel to Anaheim to take on the Ducks next Tuesday and will be in California until next Saturday when they take on the Sharks. There is a chance Erikssson could be cleared for contact and potentially re-enter the lineup in one of the three games on the trip. Eriksson will miss his 13th straight game today.
